This only proves Trump's point about China.

So because it is expensive to make your clothing line here, it is perfectly OK to use slave labor in a different country?
If you want to chant "Make America Great Again", maybe they should start using American workers and factories as a sign that you believe in what you are saying. If you are just out to save money, then you don't believe American workers are worth the price to pay.

Trump is a businessman. There is no money to be made with made in the USA. He knows this but there is little he can do about it until he can be president.
So leading by example isn't a thing in the world of Trump?

So attempting something and failing is less noble then caving to popularity and doing the harmful action all while you talk about how much stand against it?
I thought Trump didn't care what others think about him?

All I'm asking is why can't Trump lead by example. So your answer is that he is afraid of the public backlash for his business failing?
PS: We aren't talking about Bernie or Hillary. We are talking about Trump. Don't change the subject.

That sounds suspiciously like fear to me. Fear of having his failures used against him. You specifically not using the word "afraid" doesn't mean you aren't describing fear.
But hey, let's just pretend you are correct anyways. I have more questions for you. So why is it that the ONE particular action he could have taken and possibly failed at because of possible Democrat reprisal is the ONE action that could give credibility to his rhetoric about bringing jobs back to America? Again, what is wrong by leading by example? I mean even if such a company failed, just saying that it was fully staffed and housed in the US alone is enough to squash any complaints the Dems have about it.
I mean you appear to be bending over backwards to forgive Trump for not following through on his rhetoric all because it would be too hard to run a company like that. This is interesting since I work for manufacturing company that manages to be located in the US and manages to staff Americans.
